Re: Artistry of Male blog shut down again!

Don't worry. It was an automated closure by Google's spam bots that for some reason deemed AOM as a spam producing site. He'll be up again in a couple of days. Meanwhile, bookmark this, it's the emergency back-up site for these occasions!

Re: Artistry of Male blog shut down again!

It was bad enough finding out recently that AOM had decided to call it a day and stop making further entries on the blog, but my understanding was that everything would remain in place. To find that the site has been removed is terrible news

Re: Artistry of Male blog shut down again!

^ On the original AOM blog the blogger mostly posted items that were freely available on the internet. However, occasionally he would feature a particular photographer or artist and then only after receiving permission from said artist and would make it clear that the work was copyrighted and not to be republished anywhere else. So, if you're inferring that was the reason the blog was shut down, not so.

I think you'll find that most (all?) adult blogs have the warning and disclaimer, just as the original Artistry of Male did, just as the new version also has, so I don't see what that has to do with blogs being removed by Google.
